I was hesitant to go out to fish after work because of the high water in the river. But with what I have learned the past few years is that the hole location may change but the fish are still there. S...

It was a good day on the river if you don't mind catching a TON of humpies. The fish I caught actually looked better but most of them didn't fight much. Reminded me of carp fishing. Probably caught...

Fished Lewis Bridge from 11 to 2. Most, if not all, fish are discolored, not good fir eating. Because they don't move all that much, it's very easy to get foul hook. Some fish are still biting, mostly...

The weather was extra freaky this afternoon and I thought the fish might dig it. Wow, was I right! Not sure how many humpies I caught but my arms are tired. They definitely prefer lures that are sh...

Quite a few pinks coming in, but not much worth smoking anymore. Big humps and dark colors. Still fun catching a few fish. Dick Nites still seem to be the most effective as the jigs don't seem to s...
